Verified Answer :

6x^2 + 12 x -7 =0

a=6
b=12
c=-7

\(x= \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^{2} -4ac}}{2a}\)

x = {-12 +/- √[12^2 - 4(6)(-7)]} / [2(6)]

x=  0.472

x = -2.472

we have

\(f(x)=6x^{2}+12x-7\)

Equate the function to zero

\(6x^{2}+12x-7=0\)

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

\(6x^{2}+12x=7\)

Factor the leading coefficient

\(6(x^{2}+2x)=7\)

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

\(6(x^{2}+2x+1)=7+6\)

\(6(x^{2}+2x+1)=13\)

Rewrite as perfect squares

\(6(x+1)^{2}=13\)

\((x+1)^{2}=13/6\)

Square root both sides

\(x+1=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)

\(x=-1(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)

\(x1=-1+\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)

\(x2=-1-\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)

therefore

the answer is

The zeros of the quadratic equation are

\(x1=-1+\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)

\(x2=-1-\sqrt{\frac{13}{6}}\)
